At least in women's swimming; that is. The afternoon, football game will be somewhat more of a contest. But in the morning it's Michigan all the way. The University of Michigan swim club is the uncrowned cham- pion of women's college swimming teams. With almost more All- Americans on the team than can fit in a pool for a workout at one time, the Michigan coeds have the depth and ability to defeat any women's college, team in the nation. So far the Michigan swimmers, are just beginning to work out JIM BOBBITT ... .injured regular DAVE BEHRMAN ... huge center SHERMAN LEWIS ERNIE CLARK ... pony back . . . starting end PETE SMITH . . .last year's star -- Y Annual Intra-State Grid Classic a Sellout; Three Platoons Scheduled for Heavy Duty : (Continued from Page 1) Daugherty closed off his Michi- gan State practice sessions "to get complete concentration." El: liott moved his team into the farthest corner of Ferry Field. This afternoon about the only thing that you can count on is that neither team will hold any- thing back-this is the big one. Don't let anyone tell you different. Riding on it, besides all sorts of statewide -and national pres- tige is Paul Bunyan-an invention of former Gov. G. Mennen Wil- liams back in 1953. Since then, Michigan hs held the trophy only twice. The Wol- verines won 33-7 in 1954 and 14-7 in 1955. The Spartans have dom- inated the rest with only 1958's 12-12 tie at East Lansing marring an otherwise perfect record. That makes Elliott winless in three tries against the Spartans. Only Missouri and Nebraska, which have won their only starts against Elliott coached teams, and Wisconsin, which has won twice have escaped losses to Elliott. Even Ohio State and Minnesota have fallen. On paper, the Spartans appear to have the best of it again this year. Up front All-America center Dave Behrman, who weighs in at 283 lbs. in full football gear, an- chors a huge, pro-type line. De- spite injuries, the Spartans should still average 230 lbs. end to end. Small Backfield Operating behind the beef trust is Michigan State's smallest back- field since the days of Biggie Munn's famous "Pony Backfield." The biggest of the bunch is Captain George Saimes, last year's All-Big Ten fullback choice. He tips the scales at 187. Next in line is Dewey Lincoln at 185, followed by quarterback Charles Migyanka ing job. Rubick, who leads the Spartans in just about every of- fensive department, set a Michigan State single game rushing record last week of 207 yds. Three of his 14 carries went for touchdowns of 11, 15 and 67 yds. Three Platoons Unable to match Michigan State's size in the line, Michigan will counter with three platoons. Against Army, Elliott's system was THE LINEUP WARMATHI: Minnesota Stresses Defense By JIM BERGER Is the best offense a strong DEFENSE? That's what Minnesota football Coach Murray Warmath must be- lieve. And that's the way it's been for the last two seasons for the Golden Gophers. After a dismal 2-7-0 '59 season, Minnesota won the National Championship and a trip to Pasa- dena. Last year they went to Pasa- dena again. This year they can't go to the Rose Bowl, but, to the dismay of the Big Ten, it looks like Minnesota is loaded again. Scored-less The Gophers haven't been scored on yet this season. It's not offensive talent that Warmath has got,he hasn't had that (with the exception of Sandy Stephens) in the last three years, it's defense. Minnesota's graduation losses were as bad as any team in the conference. Gone were 16 letter- men including Stephens, All- American quarterback and Minne- sota's offense for the past two BIG TEN: Eight Teams Meet in Conference Action; Purdue, Wisconsin Tangle with Rivals regularly and get in shape. Coach Rose J.Mary Dawson just returned to Ann Arbor Thursday night from a vacation and the team has been practicing under the direction of her husband, Buck Dawson, and the team's undergraduate man- ager, Nancy Wager. Despite this lack of practice, the U-M swimmers shouldn't be much off form since most of the events are 50 yards and these girls are used to swimming 100-yd., 200-yd., and longer distances. Records Set In the all-campus swim meet last Saturday, four inter-collegiate records were set by swim club members. Freshman Peggi Wirth, Pam Swart, and Donna Conklin and sophomore Suzy Thrasher were the record setters. Michigan coeds now hold eight of eleven national collegiate rec- ords. Miss Wirth's time was 27.2 in winning the 50-yd. freestyle as Pam Swart and Cynthia Osgood also went under the old record of 27.9. Miss Conklin broke the 100- yd. backstroke mark of senior Eileen Murphy .9 Faster Miss Swart broke the record of Suzy Thrasher of 59.9 in the 100- yd. freestyle with a clocking of 59.0 while Miss Thrasher was set- ting a new record of 1:04.9 in the 100-yd. butterfly. Also making the trip to East Lansing for the meet at 10:00 Saturday morning are freestyler Janice Snavely, breaststrokers Susan Rogers, Sharon Bedford, and Mona DeFillipo, and divers Micki King and June Mori. Michigan State has two All- Americans in Cris Kruter and Marcia Jones. Miss Kruter is a backstroker and Miss Jones is a former U-M swimmer. This is the first meeting be- tween these two teams in a dual meet. Later in the season, the U-M swimmers will face the Uni- versity of Toronto.

Lewis, however, is being pushed hard by Ron Rubick for his start- Spartans Dominate in Rushing; Minnesota Leads All Defenses By BOB ZWINCK Seems someone once said you can lie with statistics. Well, let's see. Official Big Ten statistics for the season have been released. Al- though they are compiled for only two games for every team but In- diana (who has played three times) and the caliber of the. opponents have varied from New Mexico State to UCLA, these statistics of- fer about the only means of com- parison to the Big Ten gridiron squads. Michigan State has dominated rushing offense. The Spartans sport a 324-yds.-per-game mark i nthis department. Wisconsin is second with a 294-yd. average, and Ohio State is third with 272 yds. Passing Wild (cats) Northwestern has outgained the rest of the conference by almost the length of a football field in passing offense. The Wildcats have averaged 247 yds. per game while Wisconsin is second at 148 yards. Iowa and Minnesota are well back in a tie for third with 108 aver- ages.,. The total offense leader is Northwestern, which has rolled up 497 yards per game. Wisconsin has rambled for a 442 yd. mark, second best in the Big Ten, and MSU shows an average of 399 yds. Mich- U.S. Golfers Lead Tourney Into Finals KAWANA, Japan (P) - An all North American duel for the Eis- enhower Cup, symbol of world amateur golf supremacy, shaped up today with a revived United States team taking a two-stroke lead over Canada going into the final round of the world team championship. The U.S. team came back from a miserable second round to top the Canadians 649 to 651 strokes after 54 holes.. In the final 18-hole round to- day, Canadian Gary Cowan battles Dick Sikes, Arkansas physical ed- ucation major, for individual hon- ors. Cowan has scored 68-71-72- 211 and Sikes 69-76-69-214 on the picturesque Fuji course, set along a small chunk of the Pacific. The Britain - Ireland team, sparked by Michael Bonallack's 69 and Alexander Saddler's 72, igan is ranked sixth with a mark of 292 yds. Wall Minnesota has been nearly im- movable on defense. Last week they torpedoed the Navy. Result: negative 31 yds. rushing. That gave the Gophers a naverage of 31 yds. rushing yielded per game. Iowa's rushing defense has also been mag- nificent. It has given up only 45 yds. a game. Third is MSU, which has permitted a 78 yd. average. Passing defense honors go to Northwestern, which has given up merely 15 yds. per, game. Ohio State is second and Purdue third, with 61 and 64 yd. averages, re- spectively. Minnesota's defensive wall has limited opponents to 106 total yds. gained pertgame. Iowa is second best in total defense with a 165 yd. mark. OSU is close behind at 171 yds. Michigan's defense has given up 235 yds. a game for a sixth-place ranking. MSU has yielded an average of 277 yds. and is ranked ninth. (Don't cheer too loudly-Illinois is locked in the cellar with 386 yds. racked up against them each week.) A comparison of vital statistics is in order. MSU has gained 107 more yds. per game than Michi- gan. The Wolverines have held opponents to 38 fewer yds. a game. That leaves Michigan with a 69 yd. deficit. So therefore it's the Blue over MSU??? Say, just who was it that said you can lie with statistics? RAIN! a complete success, bottling up the Cadets almost at will. The offense, however, is another question. The Wolverines have Dave Raimey, who on any given after- noon 'can equalize anything. Dave .Glinka, a two year veteran, heads Michigan's quarterback corps aad last week against Army the left halfback and fullback position showed up stronger than they did against Nebraska. Anthony Ready Injured sophomore fullback Mel Anthony, who saw limited service against Army, is expected to be at full strength. Whether or not he is, Elliott probably won't hesitate to use him if he can be of some service. That goes 'for Michigan State's walking wounded too, primarily barrell-sized Jim Bobbitt and monstrous guard George Azar. There isn't any more after this one. Today's the BIG one. Knicks Down Rookie Stars NEW YORK (P)-The New York Knickerbockers fought off a rally- ing team of College All-Stars in the final quarter and won their annual benefit basketball game, 132-112, before 15,038 in Madison Square Garden last night., The All Stars, a group of NBA rookies this season, cut a New York 20-point lead 87-67 to a five-point margin, 103-98, with seven minutes remaining, but the Knicks got spark from Johnny Green and Richie Guerin to break it open again down the stretch. Green emerged with 30 points and led the Knicks with 16 re- bounds. The All Stars were led,'in early stages by Leroy Ellis, former St. John's (NY) center now with the Los Angeles Lakers, and in the fourth-quarter surge by Dave Debusschere, the Detroit Pistons' rookie from University of Detroit. Ellis scored 25 points and De- busschere had 21. By TOM ROWLAND The Big Ten, with four of its top teams already defeated by in- tersectional rivals, gets down to, the business of separating the Midwest powers from the push- overs today. It's the first big week- end of intra-conference tilts with eight teams in Big Ten action; Wisconsin meets Notre Dame and Purdue tangles with Miami of Ohio. King Ohio State slipped badly a week ago out West, tripping over UCLA, 9-7, and are out to save a little Buckeye face back in home territory. They won't get much of a chance today; out in Cham- paign Coach Pete Elliott's Illini, OSU's hosts, are drying up in the middle of a long win draught. After losingdall nine a year ago, the Blue and Orange have stum- bled this fall 28-7 and 45-0 to Washington and Northwestern. Power Power wins over South Carolina and the Illini have focused atten- tion to Northwestern's power of- fense this fall. Pegged as a sdark- horse question mark in pre-season picks, the Wildcats have found their salvation in soph quarter- back Tom Myers coupled with the power running of fullback Bill Swingle. Myers completed 20 of 24 aerials against South Carolina, set- ting two NCAA passing records in his collegiate debut. Today the Wildcats take on Detroit Nixed By Kentucky In .27-8 Loss DETROIT (P)--Kentucky shook Perky Bryant loose for three short touchdown runs last nightand methodically ground out a 27-8 inter - sectional football victory over Detroit. The Wildcats, winning for the first time in four games under new coach Charlie Bradshaw, re- lied almost entirely on their pounding ground game. A tough defense led by tackle Junior Hawthorne kept the Titans' passing game, third best in the nation, under control except for one scoring strike. Jerry Gross, leading the na- tion's passers, had three of his aerials intercepted. The Wildcats turned two of the interceptions into touchdowns. Bryant, a chugging fullback, scored on runs of one and seven yards the first two times the Wild- cats had the ball. He scored again on a three-yard burst in the fourth period. Detroit's only score came on Gross' 41-yard pass to Gary Banks in the third quarter. It whittled Kentucky's lead to 14-8, but the Wildcats got the touch- down back in three plays on Ken Bocard's 47-yard run with a pitchout. The loss was Detroit's fourth of the season. Minnesota,. with a win and tie record, up in Minneapolis. The Gophers couldn't muster enough offensive punch to break -a 0-0 deadlock with Missouri two weeks qgo, but turned on all the gas in a 21-0 defeat of Navy last Satur- day. Solid The Middies found the Minne- sota defense solid-the Gophers gave Navy a minus 13 yds. total rushing for the afternoon. It looks like the Minnesota quarterback situation-minus Sandy 'Stephens -is better than adequate. Duane Blasla paced the Gophers for the. second Saturday in a row, throw- ing for one TD and directing a passing attack that hit on six for 12 for 109 yards. Iowa flubbed last week, drop- ping a 7-0 fumble marathon to Southern California and will try to find easier going against In- diana today. The Hawkeyes out- gained.Southern Cal, 217 yds. to 123, but five Iowa fumbles plus two intercepted passes plus an 11- yd. punt handed the Trojans the win. Indiana stepped over Kansas State and Cincinnati before fall- ing to Wisconsin, 35-6, last week- end. Impenetrable Notre Dame couldn't penetrate the Big Ten last weekend (the Irish fell to Purdue, 24-6) but will get another try against Wisconsin. The Badgers are undefeated this fall with victories over New Mex- ico State and Indiana. They've been getting top results with a flashy soph crew that can run- and pass to All-America end Pat Richter. I BOBBY BELL * All-America years. It looked like a building year for Murray Warmath. However, he had two returning tackles, All-American Bobby Lee Bell, and Carl Eller, and with that he had a nucleus in the line. In Back Halfbacks Bill Munsey and Jim Cairns former a backfield nucleus. At ends, Jack Campbell and Bob Prawdzik have filled in for Hall and Deegan, while Julian - Hook and Jack Perkovich form the guards. Spark Plus Defensively they have held their opposition to 213 yds. total offense. Last year's Gopher squad had a similar beginning losing to Mis- souri but winning every other game but their last to Wisconsin. They never scored more than 33 points in a game but the highest their opposition scored was 23. Sixth Series Game Called SAN FRANCISCO (P)-An all- night rain imperiled the already delayed sixth game of the World Series between the San Francisco Giants and New York Yankees yesterday. "It will take four or five days for the field to become perfectly dry even if we had no more rain," said Matty Schwabe Jr., head of the grounds crew. The sixth game originally was scheduled for yesterday but base- ball commissioner Ford Frick called it off at 8:45 a.my The rain, which lasted all day Thursday and through most of Thursday night, had let up but Frick examined the sodden and soggy field and pronounced it "unavable.
